<span>Amoeba splits 3 times an hour. If Amoeba can split into two every 20 mins then if you divide 60 mins (which would be an hour) by 20 mins (the time they split) you would find that Amoeba can split 3 times in an hour. The question asks how many times it can split in two hours. To find this you have to multiply the 3 times 2. This means that a single Amoeba can split 6 times in two hours. There are 15 Amoeba which means if you take 15 Amoeba time 6 in two hours and 90 would be your answer. There will be 90 Amoeba after the two hours.</span>
I think it is 32, bc the value of x is 20 so your problem would look like this; 2 ( (20) - 4 )
Answer:
7.405882353 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest is
A = P(1+rt)
Where A is the amount in the account
P is the principle invested
r is the rate and
t is the time
6593.75 = 5000( 1+ .0425*t)
Divide each side by 5000
6593.75/5000 = ( 1+ .0425*t)
1.31475 = ( 1+ .0425*t)
Subtract 1 from each side
.31475 = .0425t
Divide each side by.0425
.31475/.0425 = .0425t/.0425
7.405882353 = t
